History and Fun Facts Here are some interesting facts about Knott's Berry Farm and its chicken and dumplings:

Knott's Berry Farm started as a small farm stand in 1920 by Walter and Cordelia Knott. They sold berries, preserves and pies. In 1934, Cordelia Knott started serving fried chicken dinners in her tea room. The chicken was cooked in a cast iron skillet with a secret recipe. The dinners were so popular that people would wait for hours to get a table. In 1940, Walter Knott planted the first boysenberry plants, a hybrid of blackberry, raspberry and loganberry. He named the berry after its creator, Rudolph Boysen. The boysenberry became the signature fruit of Knott's Berry Farm. In 1941, Walter Knott opened a replica of a ghost town to entertain the guests waiting for their chicken dinners. The ghost town featured old buildings, artifacts and actors dressed as cowboys and outlaws. The ghost town evolved into a theme park with rides, shows and attractions. Today, Knott's Berry Farm is one of the most visited theme parks in the world. It has six themed areas: Ghost Town, Fiesta Village, The Boardwalk, Camp Snoopy, Indian Trails and Wild Water Wilderness. It also has a water park called Knott's Soak City and a hotel called Knott's Berry Farm Hotel.
